form. Liquefied Petroleum Gasoline (LPG) Dealers, Retail Marine Diesel Dealers
and Terminal Operators (annual returns only) must file using Web Direct Fillable
Forms filing option.
File Transfer Protocol (FTP) includes ANSI X.12 813 4030 and ASCII Flat

motor fuel tax returns. An Excel spreadsheet is available to anyone wanting to
file via ASCII Flat File.
